This time around, Mark Visser isn’t riding a 40ft wave at night, he’s jumping from a plane into massive storm swells in the middle of the open ocean to surf what has never been accomplished and he’s doing it with satellite technology.
You may remember him as the athlete who surfed a moonlit 30ft wave at Jaws last January. While preparing for his next projects as part of a new documentary, 28-year-old Mark Visser and other local big wave surfers have paddled into the biggest storm to hit Australia in recent years.
In the true spirit of Point Break, Mark Visser decided to give himself another challenge by throwing himself into Jaws, at night.
